Thanks for the info. I hope I have cable, WiFi and electricity so I can watch the next rally. We are having high wind warnings here (see below). They cancelled them for yesterday this a.m. but have said more today and especially tomorrow night. The wind and rain woke me up about 1 this morning. It subsided for a while. It is really blowing out there now - wind whistling through the big, swaying pine trees (hope the one by me doesn’t fall on my house). Quit raining earlier and started up again a little.

You’re most welcome, Seattle Conservative!!
Prayers to you and your loved ones to be safe.
I saw tornado warnings on the weather channels earlier in Oregon and hurricane force winds for the Pacific Northwest.
Winds are extremely hard on the nervous system, to be sure.
Last Sunday, here in the Baltimore suburbs (NE Maryland) we had some nasty gusts from the backlash of Hurricane Matthew.
Again, my thoughts and prayers are with you and hope you’ll have the power to enjoy Trump’s rally in Charlotte!!!
Hope you don’t have any problems.
Just stay in and hunker-down, OK.
Stay safe sending prayers your way.
I’ve been hearing about this storm but haven’t been heavily following it
God speed to you n all in the path. Prayers for a total zfizzle seem
Appropriate
Oh no!!
PLEASE stay safe, SC!
